William Williamson Gresham, B. A. Clinton, Miss. A soul of power , a well of lofty thought.” A better student than Gresham is not to be found.

Surely his efforts in the ministry will be crowned with glorious success. President Theologs; Distinction. 4 The gayest flirt that ever coached it around the town. J. C. Stanley. 24
